Does the remote control has a standard headphone socket?
Yes it does. The remote control unit also houses a microphone so you can use it as a headset. The 3.5mm audio jack is quite specialised; it allows you to plug in the remote control unit, your own headphones and the TV-Out cable. The remote control unit has more ‘contact-points’ that a standard set of headphones. This allows it to support audio in as well as stereo out. When you plug in your own headset, a menu on the phone pops up and gives you the option of activating headphones, TV-Out cable or ‘music stand’. The remote control unit is automatically recognised.
What is the keyboard like to use? I had to send my N73 back because I found the keypad too painful to use. I have had no such issues with the N80 or N93 but I am slightly concerned by the N95 keypad as it looks a bit like the cramped N73 keypad.
The N95 is better, in my opinion, that both the N73’s and N80’s keypad. It is not as good as the N93 because less space is available. I suspect this will depend on hand size, but if you had no problems with the N80 then you will be fine with the N95.
Can the inbuilt GPS work with other software like TomTom, Route66 etc.?
The built in GPS is made available to third party software via the location APIs. This makes the internal GPS appear as another source of location data. Whether a third party piece of software can use it depends on how it is written. At the moment none of the software claims compatibility. I would anticipate that the various software companies will update their software to allow the N95’s internal GPS to be used, but may maintain the option of using an external Bluetooth GPS.
I’m really looking forward to see a video recording comparison between N93 & N95.
There’s some comparison video available here. It’s roughly similar to that from the N93, though of course there’s no optical zoom available.
Just read the whole thing, it’s packed with details and organized so you can quickly look up what interests you.
